The Little Things is a collection of Nguyen's affirmations on self-love, life and relationships in the form of poetry and prose. The book is comprised of three chapters: People, Places and Things. Accompanied by the illustrative works of Michelle S. Tam, The Little Things invites readers to immerse themselves in the work by becoming the subject, object or bystander in the poem. In doing so, Nguyen hopes to bring a unique sense of awareness to the intricacies of our thoughts and actions with our surroundings.
